Arabic term

أخطو بضآلة

Arabic to English Art/Literary Geography
Hi everyone,

Does this mean to tread lightly/take small steps?

أول يوم دخلتها لأجد نفسي أخطو بضآلة وأمام المكتبة الرئيسية، كخليفة لعصر ما، بمعماره العتيق من الطوب الأحمر

It is a scene where the speaker is entering university for the first time.

Thanks!
